We're back at it again, this time with a relay tournament on Father's Day: Sunday, June 21st.
How does this format work?
In teams of 4, you will play 4 consecutive 2v2 matches.
Everyone in your team plays 2 of those 4 matches, each time with a different partner.
The first match will go until one team reaches 15 points.
The second match continues with the final score of the first match and ends when one team reaches 30 points.
The third match continues with the score from the second match and ends at 45 points.
The final match ends at 60 points. Whichever team reaches 60 points first wins the game overall.
In total you will play 3 of these games till 60.
Team Strategy:
Your team will decide the order of who plays when in the 4 matches.
Only rule: If you play in the last match (4th match), you do not play in the semi-last match (3rd match). (If your team consists of 2 women and 2 men, all your matches have to be mixed.)
First, think about who should play the very last match. Your strongest pair, so they can make a comeback? Or players that deal well with pressure? Or your best servers?
The other 2 players play the 3rd match, and you make 2 combinations for the first 2 matches.
There is a little ritual to make sure teams stick to the strategy they thought of and don't switch mid-game:
Once both teams have their order, face one another.
Do a 3, 2, 1, go and at go the pairs that play the last match will raise their hand.
Then, the pairs that play the first match will walk on the court and play begins.
